the medical rotations have adapted and at worst will have a 18hr shift... but usually have a floating 12 hour shift... hence the spill over of tons of medical school grads who now go into things like derma/pedia/ER med/family med ect... the quality of life is so much better during training.
Warning: Spoiler!(Click to show)

there's a bit of a stockholm syndrome thing that happens though because when you talk to your friends when they're PGY-1/2 ect they will look back on those days fondly like fucking idiots.
on surgical rotations you're supposed to be promptly subbed out after your shift is over - but you still have to endorse your patients (sit together with the senior residents) while you go over your cases/patients to the incoming shift.... old school endorsements would have a mean consultant there that would shame you for not knowing the tiniest details about a case - even though most of the time you do know, but you're 36hrs sleep/food/shower/rest deprived to answer coherently.
the best part of surgical internships? if you're at the end of a 36hr duty... and you still have a patient that is going into surgery/going into labor/ect you're actually expected to stay with the patient and do the surgery (it teaches you about patient/case ownership).... so that 36hr duty can easily turn into a 48hr duty or even longer once the surgery is over.

do you enjoy looking at strange vajayjays for 36 hours in a row?

Falcon said the delay was mostly amusing to him and only delayed him for about 5 minutes. He said it was the first time his penis had caused a security concern.

“I”ve gone through the (airport scanner) before, and I wasn’t worried,” he said. “What was the worst that was going to happen — I was going to have to whip it out for them? I’m used to that. Sometimes when people ask me about it, if I’m feeling up to it, I’ll just show them.”

Falcon’s penis has been reported as 9.5 inches when flaccid and 13.5 inches when erect, according to Rolling Stone. He has been featured in documentaries on HBO and overseas and has appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He works as a video game journalist and as an actor with small roles in movies and television shows, according to his Internet Movie Database profile.

A spokesman for the TSA at SFO was not immediately available for comment. Falcon said the agents were “professional” about the security check.
